Submission Deadline: Saturday, April 19th by 11:59 PM Pacific.
Voting begins Sunday, April 6th, and goes until Tuesday, April 22nd at 11:59 PM Pacific.
Note the changes in the times. While moving the times to 11:59 AM has been beneficial to some, it has also made tallying up the votes in the middle of the day kind of difficult. So rather than go back all the way to the original times, I'm splitting the difference and giving people a full weekend day to get stuff done. We'll see how that works out, the winner of this challenge is free to go back to the previous time scheme, or even the one before that.
Optional Secondary Objective: Perversion of an ideal
The alteration of something from its original course, meaning, or state to a distortion or corruption of what was first intended.
Take something good. Make it bad.
